EDITORS COMMENTS
This aquatint print, titled "Dusasumade Gaut, at Bernares on the Ganges, 1796" takes us on a visual journey to the heart of India's cultural and architectural heritage. Created by Thomas Daniell in the late 18th century, this artwork showcases his remarkable talent for capturing intricate details and scenic beauty. The scene depicted in this print is set along the majestic River Ganges in Bernares (now Varanasi), a city renowned for its spiritual significance. The artist skillfully portrays a bustling riverbank filled with boats of various sizes and shapes. From elegant sailing vessels to sturdy rowing boats, each vessel contributes to the vibrant atmosphere of transport and movement. As our eyes wander through this picturesque landscape, we are drawn towards magnificent buildings that line the riverbanks. Notable landmarks such as Dasasvamedha Ghat and Benares Palace stand proudly against the backdrop of an azure sky. These architectural wonders symbolize India's rich history and cultural heritage. "Dusasumade Gaut" serves as a testament to Daniell's fascination with Orientalism – his desire to capture exotic landscapes and cultures from around the world. Through his meticulous attention to detail and masterful use of aquatint technique, he transports viewers back in time to experience the charm and allure of 18th-century India. This exquisite print now resides within The McManus museum in Dundee, UK – a treasure trove celebrating art from different eras. Its
